Ruca,

A little example,

Open a new windows application project
In the toolbox rightclick and select add/Remove items
In the customize toolbox select Com and in that Microsoft Webbrowser

When that is in the toolbox drag it to your form
Drag also a button to your form.

Then this code and you have a mini Webbrowser.

\\\
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.AxWebBrowser1.Navigate2("www.google.com")
End Sub
//

Well you could hide the server side session variable in the html document,
then retrieve it by using the AxWebBrowser1.Document and the DOM.

As an example....

In your body tag of your web page you could do:

<body MyVar=<%= Session("MyVar") %> >

Then your windows form do:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.AxWebBrowser1.Navigate2("http://localhost/MySite/WebForm1.aspx";)
End Sub

Private Sub AxWebBrowser1_DocumentComplete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal
e As AxSHDocVw.DWebBrowserEvents2_DocumentCompleteEvent) Handles
AxWebBrowser1.DocumentComplete
Dim S3 As String =
CType(AxWebBrowser1.Document.body.getAttribute("MyVar"), String)
End Sub

But you don't have to do just the body tag attribute, you could do this as
hidden input, xml tag, etc....

If you're looking to go beyond simply providing browser functionality to
your app and instead make it a sort of mini-ASP.NET then more than likely
your application would have to host the CLR like Web Matrix does. I doubt
this would be an easy solution.
